ASSESMENTS:
I, Rumi Dhar from Kama Journeys & Hospitality Services Pvt Ltd visited SATTE Exhibition which was held in Pragati Maidan , New Delhi from 27 Jan 11 to 29 Jan 11, it was excellent Exhibition but as it name SATTE- South Asian Travel & Tourism Exchange, there is an exchange but all the exhibitor are from India who are promoting their new setups in different places. Many of the hoteliers promoting their hotels in different countries but some of south Asian countries stalled themselves in exhibitions which was isolated from main area. There were 189 stalls but about 80% are only hotels, resorts and retreats from South India and Rajasthan.It is interesting to see the stall of Incredible India which was promoting north east India and newly developed tourist states Chattisgarh, Jharkhand etc. In the name of Airlines there were only three airlines promoting themselves- Air India, Kingfisher, Jet Airways. Overall good exhibition.
